Butoh Familia: Waves of the Sea
About this Event
Butoh Familia: Waves of the Sea
First performance in the Butoh Familia Series!
Followed by an artist talk and reception.
Butoh Familia: Waves of the Sea is a contemporary butoh dance work exploring Jewish ancestral and spiritual inheritance across generations—moving memory, embodying ancestry, and transforming inherited history into a living archive.
Inspired by the artist’s great-grandfather rabbi and his 1912 religious book, from which the piece takes its name, the work fuses his Kabbalistic legacy with Jewish dance and music rooted in familial and historical events, expressed through butoh, an avant-garde form of Japanese dance that uses imagery, memory, and deep physical states as its movement base.
This project is made possible with funds from the Statewide Community Regrant program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature and administered by Lower Adirondack Regional Arts Council.
